Don’t let the rising fuel and travel costs deter you from having an enjoyable and memorable vacation this summer. There are destinations close to home that are suitable for family vacations and offer lots of fun and excitement.

Have you considered that traveling to bed and breakfasts within your state may be a surprising and delightfully unexpected experience?

There are a myriad of bed and breakfasts around the US which offer accommodations for kids. In fact, you can find B&B’s from New York to California online which offer you the opportunity to explore new areas within your state, and have a wide variety of activities specifically designed for families.

One such place is Santa’s Village in Chicago.

This 55-acre theme park has been around for 40 years.

It offers over 20 rides for kids and adults, and has recently added Coney Island, Santa’s World, and Old MacDonald’s Farm.

There is a petting zoo, pony rides, and a host of other activities which your family can enjoy at an affordable price.

In addition, next to Santa’s Village is the Racing Rapids Water Park which offers a wide variety of water rides for the entire family.

Indiana is another place which offers B&B’s and is home to the famous Indy 500.

With its well-known Indianapolis Zoo, you can participate in the Dolphin Adventure and visit over 300 animals in their habitat,

or walk through the indoor garden where you will come upon thousands of butterflies and tropical plants.

There are museums, the IMAX movie theatre, and an incredible array of foods that will soothe your taste buds and delight your kids as well.

If any member of your family is a sports fan, a visit to Victory Field will leave them in awe.

There are many roads that lead to surprising and unexpected results. Whether you decide to go camping, go to the beach, stay at B&B’s, or spend time in a city that has theme parks and an abundance of activities suited for the entire family, relax and enjoy your vacation.
